Directed by Brett Eichenberger, the film recently premiered at Newport Beach Film Festival. Read More

Content Insider #580 - Big n Small

Netflix is so successful they've got a big target on their back. Might bother some but they're just growing as quickly as possible producing/buying new content they already know their subscribers will want and will want to talk about. That talking about (WOM) keeps increasing their subscription numbers around the globe. The cable guy believes the phone folks who swear people no longer visit their family room to watch big screens so they add wireless digital services but normal folks only pay a little attention as long as they have new content available to them. Some is short, some is long and as long as the video stream is smooth and the story is good viewers are happy. The mobile screen works just fine as the service throttling and growing data bill doesn't bother you it's all good. Read More

Content Insider #578 - VR Filmwork

Despite what Musk says we may never experience travel to the outer reaches of space or the depth of the Mariana Trench or climb Mt. Everest but 360/VR can let us experience, really experience these ventures and more. We know because some friends took us there and back. VR is good and it's getting better all of the time.

Content Insider #577 - Talk to Me

Sometimes we get so wrapped up in our techie talk we forget the ROW (rest of the world) doesn't know what we're saying and honestly...don't give a rat's behind! You know real people like Aaron Semmel an EP and his film project producers/directors. They may have heard the specs we're so impressed with but all they care about is...what's it do for me/us? Film people - and film viewers - may tolerate the jargon we're so impressed with but maybe, just maybe, if we did a better job of thinking in terms of what they want/need we could sell more stuff. What a revolutionary idea we need to practice...more. It's just a thought... Read More

Avoiding Footage Loss - Tactics for Storing and Recovering Data

Months of planning and work can go into a filmmaking scene. There's the set design, lighting, location scouting, and many other facets that all need to work in concert to pull off a great shoot. With all of the care and attention put into the production, there should be more directed towards the actual product. If the footage data is damaged, corrupted, or incomplete, then all of the efforts going into a shoot were wasted. High-end cameras are not foolproof, and occasionally errors occur that disrupt the data. And people are certainly not foolproof, as they sometimes make unwise decisions about storing and protecting data. Thankfully, there are some best practices production teams and filmmakers can follow to best protect valuable footage. Read More
